More Clues About Sacha Baron Cohen's New TV Show

Sacha Baron Cohen took to social media on Sunday to tease his upcoming series on Showtime. Then on Thursday, Varietyreported that Cohen was in talks with Showtime for a brand new topical series, the format of which would be similar to Da Ali G Show.

A quick cut montage was followed by an interview with former US Vice President Dick Cheney, 77.

In the first clip from the Borat star's new TV series Who is America, the satirist remains offscreen speaking with a heavy accent as he asks Cheney to sign an empty plastic water jug, which Cohen claims is a "waterboard kit".

We see Cheney on screen, sitting in an armchair and happily signing the apparent torture device. Showtime has been pimping a new comedy it dubbed as "perhaps the most unsafe show in the history of television", and it appears as though that is what Sacha has been working on.
